All Music Guide Review

Everyone's favorite new age synthesizer/acoustic trio returns with a twenty-year retrospective of holiday traditions; easily their strong suit and what they are most famous for in the public eye. Recorded live at over six venues on their latest tour, the group presents a balance of contemporary favorites, international Christmas standards and traditional religious hymns. A guest appearance by Johnny Mathis on "O Tannenbaum" definitely ranks among the highlights; as well as their anthemic rendition of "Deck The Halls." And while those loyalists most likely already have performances of most of these tunes, it's still a fun little disc that brings out the joy and spirit of the holiday season. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
